Symptoms

Unable to use the loadpricelist application to remove mutual exclusivity's from deals.

When mutual exclusivity is defined in a deal and it's already committed to DB, using loadpricelist
to reload the deal (XML file) with the mutual exclusivity (dependency tag) removed, it doesn't
remove the mutual exclusivity. The Pricing Center still shows the mutual exclusive deals defined
before. In the dependency_t table it still contained records for deal mutual exclusivity.

Steps To Reproduce:
1. In Pricing Center, find some deals with mutual exclusive defined
2. Use the Pricing Center to remove the mutual exclusivity from the deals (do not commit)
3. Export the changes using the “export” to an XML file (for example file name
XYZBase_Remove_Exclusive.xml)
4. Use the loadpricelist application to load the XML into Portal. The command used is:

The result shows

However, the change is not reflected. The mutual exclusive deals still show in the original deals.
